It may seem like things have been quiet in the house of Orabelle Baby, but we have actually been working hard on a new line- Hand Made Waldorf inspired dolls!

They are all natural, eco-friendly, and just darling. You can check out our very first one in our shop now. Her name is Mary, after my dear Nana. Nana loved the idea of the dolls and was so excited to see them. Unfortunately, she passed away unexpectedly a few weeks ago and never had the chance to see them. But in Nana's memory, here they are and there will be many more to follow, so stay tuned!

I am sitting listening to the sound of freezing rain and snow pounding against my window, yet the vision of tulips and tank tops dance in my head. Maybe that's because I recently had a blast photographing some new spring items for my shop. Heather, from Heather Nicole Photography got some amazing shots, check out the new line here!

Who doesn't love organic clothing for children? How about if it was affordable? Would affordable, organic, and absolutely adorable, be too much to ask for? Not at Amelie Jo. Here you will find unique, handmade clothing that doesn't break the bank. The creator, Anna, is a stay at home mother of two that had an epiphany, one sunny afternoon, "when I found a vintage portrait of a wise, old owl and a blank, white tee in my baby girl's closet. I was soon lost in creativity, carefully adding colorful buttons and a bit of hand embroidery. I fell in love with the result and had much too much fun with the process! I realized that I had just created a piece that I had been searching for since my child's birth - an affordable, organic, vintage inspired tiny bit of heaven, punctuated with a little flair and a whole lotta love!"

Amelie Jo also has a fun blog with informative articles on handmade life and fabulous reviews and giveaways from other talented artists...you may just see Orabelle Baby featured one day soon...

Finally!! After months of thinking about starting a blog, here it is. Please bear with me as I put all the pieces together, and please tell all your friends to become followers. There will be sale announcements, new product launches, and lots of giveaways!

Orabelle Baby hails from the great Hamilton, Massachusetts. I started Orabelle Baby after having my first child. Frustrated at not being able to find clothes I liked for him, I decided to create my own line. Now that I have a daughter to dress too, I am even more inspired to make clothes that moms (and dads) look forward to putting on their kids. Please check out my shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/OrabelleBaby
